2007-10-12 13:05 Victory for Armenians: Congress has passed resolution to recognize Armenian Holocaust
Despite Dubya's disgraceful attempts to discourage recognition of this important tragedy in history, Congress has done the right thing and has made a positive first step towards recognizing Turkey's mass murder of 1.5 million Armenians in 1915 :A U.S. House committee on Wednesday defied President George W. Bush by passing a resolution calling the 1915 massacre of Armenians genocide, a step the White House warns could damage U.S. goals in the Middle East. The measure, passed by the House Foreign …

2007-10-12 01:59 Tommorrow s News: Turkey Pissed Over House Vote
Maybe the NY Times is coming out with a new slogan: All the future news sometimes fit for printing Turkey reacted angrily today to a House committee vote in Washington on Wednesday to condemn the mass killings of Armenians in Turkey in World War I as an act of genocide, calling the decision œunacceptable. In a rare and uncharacteristically strong condemnation, President Abdullah Gul criticized the vote by the House Foreign Relations Committee in a statement to the semi-official Anatolian News …

2007-10-12 01:20 Nicholas von Hoffman and the Lobby the Armenian One
Nicholas von Hoffman will probably go to his grave still known as the journalist who predicted in 2001 a complete rout in Afghanistan - by the Taliban. To borrow Trotsky's animadversion on Dwight Macdonald, everyone has the right to be stupid, by von Hoffman abuses the privilege. His latest Nation column, " Whose Genocide Counts ", is more like a sub-literate raspberry directed at the congressmen of the House Foreign Affairs Committee who yesterday voted to recognize the Armenian Genocide: What' …

The Hymns of Martin Luther Charles Scribner's and Sons, 1883 You might guess from the image House ain't happy. No, no he's not. President Bush is clearly aligning himself with the genocidal maniacs of the past, Adolf Hitler and Josef Stalin among them. But I'm sure that Abdullah Gul loves it.

2007-08-30 05:09 Turkey, Islam, and the EU
Abdullah Gul has been sworn in as Turkey s president after the vote in parliament, becoming the first former Islamist to win the post in modern history. The presidency is traditionally seen as a bastion of the secular state established by modern Turkey's founder, Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, in 1923. The president is chief of the armed forces, with influence over senior appointments - and in the powerful military establishment. Hitherto, Islamists and hijab-wearing wives have not been tolerated.

2007-08-29 21:29 See Gul in Charge
One of the big news items of the week was the election of Abdullah Gul as Turkish president. It's the first time that an Islamic (rather than secular) leaning politician has headed up the country. The new First Lady wears a scarf, a no-no for secular Turks; it's far from a burqa. The one in the BBC piece is something that I could see Laura Bush wearing on the right occasion; a modern woman making a bow for Islamic modesty without looking like a Taliban throwback.

2007-08-29 04:44 The Words By Which He Will Be Judged
W hen the devoutly Christian W. was elected, many thought he would work to create a Christian nation, as opposed to a nation that's made up primarily of Christians. Of course he didn't -- although you'd never know it from the diatribes of the anti-religious Left. So yes ... no surprise ... here in America we can have a Christian president without fear -- not that I'd fear it, but I recognize that some would. Now comes an interesting question: Can the same thing happen in secular Turkey, now that …

That's what a friend of mine -- who lived in Turkey at the same time I did -- suggested the other day. He has a point. They used to have coups on a fairly regular basis, but it's been ages, at this point. What with the election of Abdullah Gul as president, the time may be now. Armed forces chief General Yasar Buyukanit said on Monday he saw "centers of evil" seeking to undermine the secular republic, a statement suggesting the army would not stand on the sidelines if it saw the separation betwe …

Gul, who calls himself a former Islamist, is viewed suspiciously by Turkish secularists facing an Islamist-rooted government; they don't trust his insistence that he is now a conservative democrat.
